crazyaboutmika Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Mika is releasing SONG BOOK VOL 1 on November 12, his first collection with 15 of his international hits. Here's the Italian press release: MIKA pubblica il prossimo 12 novembre “SONG BOOK VOL.1”, la sua prima raccolta con 15 successi internazionali. Da “Grace Kelly” a “Celebrate”, passando per “Relax (Take It Easy)”, “Rain”, “Kick Ass”, “We Are Golden” e “Love Today”: tutte autentiche hit le cui vendite digitali in Italia sono state certificate oro, platino e multiplatino. Nel disco sono presenti anche due hit del passato in versioni diverse da quelle più note ( “Origin Of Love” e “Happy Ending”) , oltre a tracce mai apparse su un album, come la hit estiva “Live Your Life” e il brano “Stardust” in una nuova versione cantata in duetto con Chiara, vincitrice della scorsa edizione di X Factor. E’ inclusa anche la nuova versione di “Popular Song” (ispirata al musical Wicked) e cantata con Ariana Grande: il videoclip di questa canzone, pubblicato pochi mesi fa, conta ben trentaquattro milioni di visite su You Tube. La raccolta è il risultato di un lungo lavoro “Italiano” in cui l’artista, che recentemente ha preso casa a Milano, ha curato ogni aspetto del progetto: dalle scelta delle canzoni, alcune delle quali caratterizzate da importanti collaborazioni, alle fotografie e alle illustrazioni di copertina, realizzati appunto in Italia. Mika da quest’anno ha visto crescere in modo esponenziale la sua popolarità in Italia grazie al programma X-FACTOR a cui partecipa in qualità di giudice. La sua simpatia, l’estrosità, la competenza musicale e il suo “perfetto” italiano, imparato in pochi mesi, lo hanno confermato l’unica vera star della nuova stagione televisiva italiana. Mika ha pubblicato ad oggi 3 album d’inediti (“Life in cartoon motion”, “The boy who knew too much” e “The origin of love”) ed ha venduto più di otto milioni di album. Ha ricevuto certificazioni di disco d’oro o di platino in ben 32 paesi di tutto il mondo, ed è vincitore ai Brit e agli MTV Award, nonché Cavaliere delle Arti delle Lettere in Francia. L’album “Song Book Vol.1” esce solo per il mercato italiano ed è disponibile nella versione digipack con un libretto che include i testi di tutte le canzoni. L’edizione digitale contiene altre quattro hit non disponibili su CD. In aggiunta sono state realizzate versioni esclusive per iTunes, Amazon e Deezer: ognuno di questi store digitali avrà in più un brano inedito di Mika in lingua francese. La scaletta dell’album fisico comprende: 01 Relax (Take It Easy) 02 Grace Kelly 03 Stardust (feat. Chiara) 04 Celebrate (feat. Pharrell Williams) 05 We Are Golden 06 Origin of Love (new version) 07 Big Girl (You Are Beautiful) 08 Rain 09 Underwater 10 Popular Song (feat. Ariana Grande) 11 Blame It On The Girls 12 Live Your Life 13 Love Today 14 Kick Ass (feat. RedOne) 15 Happy Ending ( LA edit) Le digital bonus track: 16 Lollipop 17 Stardust ( Benny Benassi mix) 18 Any other world 19 Blue Eyes Bonus track iTunes 20 Karen Bonus track Amazon 20 Un soleil mal luné Bonus track Deezer 20 L’Amour dans le mauvais temps Source: http://www.newsic.it/news/body_news.php?id=31311 Live Your Life is out officially :wub2::wub2::wub2: I want this CD :pbjt::pbjt: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gail Hutchens Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I really wish it were out in West USA...And the cover is awesome! I really, really, REALLY want one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieun Jeon Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Could someone from Italy buy it for me? I'll pay for everything... It'd be really nice if Mika releases it worldwide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valmont69 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Why only in Italy?I think all his fans around the world would like to get a copy, I know I'd like one. i think Christine has expressed the reason why it will be released only in Italy. Maybe someone can ask to Mika management if they are thinking of ordering copies for Mikasounds.com.... Well, I could arrange a business from here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiibet Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Quite logical step to use his new popularity in Italy And people from other countries can order it by mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreacher Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Its on amazon.it for preordering. i was justing testing to see if amazon.it would stop me from ordering it & shipping it to the usa. i didn't want to pre-order it yet so i stopped, but it let me get to the final step (cost for standard shipping would be 10 euros). Looks like there's hope they will ship worldwide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamiam Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 i think Christine has expressed the reason why it will be released only in Italy.Maybe someone can ask to Mika management if they are thinking of ordering copies for Mikasounds.com.... Well, I could arrange a business from here That's was my first thought too - that we could buy it from Mikasounds.com shop - like most if the MIKA items I've ordered from there throughout the years, so I hope they will offer the songbook there soon Yes, sure you could start a MIKA shop in ROMA Then I'm coming down south to you !!

Well, I could arrange a business from here I get the initial reasoning behind it, but I'm sure Mika knows that once the news of this album got out, that the worldwide fanbase would be interested in getting their hands on a copy. Even if he got it put out on limited release, like he did with Songs For Sorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are several places to buy it, I can't see how it could be a problem it's released only in Italy. It looks so pretty indeed I hope there will be new artwork and photos inside.

Even if he got it put out on limited release, like he did with Songs For Sorrow. I think Songs For Sorrow was more unique. It`s so sad this LP is not on sale anymore - I still wanna have my copy and still havent got one((. As to the new Song Book - i`m not interested much, unless Mika signs all the copies:wink2: It`s not as much anticipated as the 4th album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louiza Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Tweet from Mika Italia #BestOfSongBookVol1 è un lavoro “Italiano”di cui #MIKA ha curato ogni dettaglio:canzoni,fotografie ed illustrazioni Cant wait to discover the illustrations and everything about this album:wub2: Also love the choice of colors on the cover! And what a great surprise to have a quality recording of the duet with Chiara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulun♥23 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 (edited) yes, it's only in Italy, BUT our fellow italian fans can give a little help to the ones from the rest of the world :fisch: I have friends from Italy (fans) but how will I pay them back...? I've never met them. It's a great timing for it, because of Mika's increasing popularity in Italy, but it'll be even better if they could also sell it on mikasounds.com Edited October 24, 2013 by Tulun♥23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naectegale Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Only in Italy?? The cover is beautiful!!! Edit: and what is it "Vol 1"? "Vol 1" is short for "Volume 1". Which means if it sells well, there might be a "volume 2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Mastin Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 It's being released in Italy because that is the only place he is being promoted at the moment. If it comes out in the UK, for example, no one will know it exists and then there will be complaints that it's not being promoted by the record company. The promotion here is being generated by Italian X Factor. There is no demand for this in other countries at the moment. Unfortunately Christine. You are right. Like many have said before me, I really like the cover!! So do I! It's beautiful! Do I preorder it or not? Like the cover too oh, I forgot to say that I was in a French FNAC a few days ago and I saw there is a new edition of Origin of Love, including Live your Life and Popular Song with Ariana. On the cover is written "included Underwater of the Swatch ad" The Swatch ad needs to come on UKTV. Uw is a beautiful song and the ad is visually striking. If Mika's name was on the screen while the ad is on, or they announced it's his Swatch, the UK would know it's his song. All being well, that would help him over here. One thing annoys me atm. People on Twitter are trying to get Mika to get Italian X Factor to invite Olly Murs to sing on the show, because it would be good for him! Where was the support for Mika? He should be invited to sing on X Factor UK! Olly Murs doesn't need any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
